FM7 Resort Hotel Jakarta

10/10 Excellent

"Booked FM7 Resort as previously stayed here. Excellent location for stay over either travelling into or out from Jakarta. Great facilities, excellent staff and well worth the cost. After a couple of weeks spent in more basic facilities, it was great to have a super comfortable bed, hot water and fluffy towels. Will definitely stay here again in the future. "
